Avaliação das condições de estabilidade de taludes artificiais na baixa do município de Xai-Xai

Abstract

The stability of slopes has been a subject of much study, because the conditions of different materials that make up the soil and rock, and the instability of instability of the same caused by higher load forces, can lead to mass movements mass movements of soil that may sequentially involve economic losses and loss of human lives. Atrifial slopes are defined as sloping surfaces of rock or earth masses rock masses originated by artificial processes, formed or modified by the action of man. man. The objective of the research was to evaluate the stability conditions of artificial slopes in the downtown of the Xai-Xai Municipality, in an artificial slope in the Martines de Revolution, in order to know the possible causes and problems of slope instability of the the studied site in order to apply the preventive or corrective measures that are most appropriate for stabilize them if they are unstable to ensure human safety. human safety. The method adopted for the purpose of this research was based on field research and laboratory tests that provided data concerning the cbr with the average value of 10.84% and proctor with an average of 7.3% whose results of the calculation of safety factors were satisfactory with an average of 2.1%. Therefore it should be noted that despite having raised some defects on the some defects on the slopes, these defects are not of strong evidence that can lead to slippage because the results obtained from the FS concluded that the slopes of the Downtown Xai-Xai are stable and still offer resistance that ensures human safety by within the parameters established by the norms.
